I've suggested the pre-paid cards several times to people that don't have regular credit cards. It is a better option in my opinion than the Debit cards. Nothing wrong with Traveler's Checks either. I know quite a few people that use them for their S & S account.
we have credit cards, but we hate to use the. we always buy Ship board credit in the form of gift certificates. You still need to have a credit or debit card on file, but our bill is always paid before we board. It works for us.

If they work well for you that's great. As you correctly said, you still need a card on file to use them. A cash deposit would work as well. I personally don't recommend them as a main funding source for the S & S account because they have terms and conditions for use on the account. They are also not replaceable if lost or stolen. Look here.

the pre paid card is a great idea!!!!! All i have is a check card and i was thinking i would be constantly checking to make sure i dont go over (and get charged EXPENSIVE fees). Did you say you can also put down trvelers checks for the sail and sign card? Cause that would be good too. How would that work? Give them like $800 in travelers checks the first day? What if go over? What if have money left on it? My first cruise in 61 days!!!! Thanks for the help.

Yes, You can probably gauge how much you will need to give them. You don't have to give it all to them at one time. If you go over they'll let you know. If you have money left on it, they will give you a check back for the difference with your final statement early morning on debarkation day.
